Electromagnetism & Electronics
Hz (Frequency), J (Energy)
An electrical circuit containing an inductor and capacitor that exchanges energy periodically between the electric field of the capacitor and magnetic field of the inductor.
f₀ = 1 / (2π √(L C)), E_total = ½ C V² + ½ L I²
Lenz's Law
Electromagnetism & Electronics
Dimensionless (Directional Law)
A physical law asserting that the direction of an induced current always produces a magnetic field that opposes the change in magnetic flux that induced it.
Represented by the negative sign in E = -dΦ_B/dt
Logic Gates
Electromagnetism & Electronics
Binary (0 or 1)
Elementary digital electronic building blocks that perform Boolean logical operations on one or more binary inputs to yield a single binary output.
AND: Y = A·B; OR: Y = A + B; NOT: Y = Ā; NAND: Y = (A·B)̄
Lorentz Force
Electromagnetism & Electronics
N (Newtons)
The combined force exerted on a charged particle moving through electromagnetic fields containing both electric and magnetic field components.
F = q (E + v × B)
